[Marriage First, Love Later • Proud Man Falls First • Slow-Burn Sweet Romance • Both Leads Are Each Other’s Only]
Pei Yan was refined, poised, and born into immense wealth—someone Wen Zhiyu had never dared to hope of reaching in a lifetime.
Until an accident changed everything: she married into the Pei family in place of her stepsister.
On their wedding day, Pei Yan did not even glance at her before flying off on a business trip to Haishi.
Everyone said he did not want her—that divorce was only a matter of time.
Wen Zhiyu believed it too.
So she stayed quiet and obedient. She never made a fuss, took her medicine on time, and lived by his rules.
But as days passed, she began to see a side of him that contradicted his cold exterior.
On their first visit back to her parents’ home three days after the wedding, he slipped away from a formal dinner just to place a piece of fish on her plate.
When she mentioned taking the subway to work, a Maserati waited for her in the garage the very next morning.
While away on a business trip, he braved snow and wind to rush back—all because he spotted a stranger in one of her social media photos.
It was then Wen Zhiyu realized: this man had never planned to let her go.
Later someone asked Pei Yan, “Weren’t you always set on staying single?”
Pei Yan looked over at the girl beside him and answered softly, “I was—until I met her.”
At first, all he wanted was an obedient wife to satisfy his family.
In the end, he found himself begging for her love.
